Abstract

Various triethylphosphine coordinated gold(1) mercaptides of formula Et3PAuSR (R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu, Bu1, Ph, CH2Ph, β-C10H7, and CH2CH(NH2)C02H), and related sulphur derivatives of formula Et3PAuY (Y = SCN, SC(S)Net2, SC(S)OEt, and SC(NH2)NH2+Br-) have been prepared. Under appropriate conditions, displacement of the sulphur group from the gold atom is observed, either by another sulphur nucleophile, e.g. Et3PAuSR + Et2NCSS- → Et3PAuSC(S)Net2 + RS-, or by a. nucleophile such as Cl-, Br-, I-, NO3-, or CN-.
